A new set of Black Myth: Wukong patch notes have gone live on all platforms which introduce fresh features and make various fixes.
Although Black Myth: Wukong missed out on The Game of the Year award at the 2024 Game Awards, it did take home the Best Action Game trophy. The work continues and a fresh update has brought a range of features that fans will want to dive into.
Black Myth: Wukong patch notes highlights
After completing the entire game, you can find a Challenge option at any Keeper’s Shrine. There are two types of challenges available, Return of Rivals and Gauntlet of Legends.
Return of Rivals allows you to take on a former opponent in a duel, choosing from three levels of difficulty. If any opponents remain undefeated in the main game, the corresponding re-battle will be unavailable.
As for the Gauntlet of Legends, this will see you battle multiple opponents in succession, using customised curses and new enemy moves to keep you on your toes. Following suit of Return of Rivals, if any opponents remain undefeated in the main game, the related gauntlet will be unavailable.
Those strong enough to come out on top of the Gauntlet of Legends will be rewarded with the following rare treasures:
- Medicine: “Glimmering Scale Pellets” and its formula
- Drink and Soaks: “Sour Wine”, “Frost-Enduring Chrysanth”, and “Robust Antler”
- Curios: “Stone Tiger Tally”, “Ever-Burning Palace Lantern”, and “Fragment of the Ocean-Settling Pillar”
- Equipment: “Three Hill Crown”
- Weapons: “Qing Mallet”, “Fanged Cyan Staff”, and “Leeching Centipede Staff”
Another new gameplay feature making its debut with the update is the Journeyer’s Chart. This can be unlocked by entering Black Wind Mountain and meeting the Keeper. For each new territory reached, a Journeyer’s Chart can be purchased at the Keeper’s Shrine, essentially acting as an in-game map.
The Black Myth: Wukong patch notes make various other improvements, from new music library functions and plenty of bug fixes. The full list of changes can be viewed, here.
